...unless they're female, in which case doing a youtube vlog with your face and voice and home decor attached is more likely to result in death threats and/or rape threats and/or stalking threats and/or actual stalking?

I appreciate how Ott uses examples from everyday life to ground his high-flying cultural criticism in terms we can all understand.
"Fantano went to SCSU and is originally from Prospect, which is sort of the Connecticut equivalent of being from Farmingdale and watching fuckheads from Oyster Bay cut through your town in color-coordinated 458s whenever the LIE goes harsh realm."
― brio, Tuesday, 20 May 2014 17:26 (ten years ago) link
(which isn't hypothetical at all. I follow a couple popular youtube partners -- no idea how much money they actually make, but they're close to the upper limit of success in their niche -- and several have said they are reluctant to have female guests because literally every time they've invited a female guest on she has been stalked.)

Let me explain it for you: Being from Town A is the equivalent of being from Town B and watching people drive through your town
makes totally sense

So is being from Prospect but attending SCSU the equivalent of watching fuckheads from Oyster Bay cut through your town in color-coordinated 458s whenever the LIE goes harsh realm? Or is it simply just being from Prospect that is the equivalent?
― how's life, Tuesday, 20 May 2014 17:54 (ten years ago) link
xpost I'm joking too--the sentence doesn't actually make sense
― relentlessly pecking at peace (President Keyes), Tuesday, 20 May 2014 17:55 (ten years ago) link
it's like 'he attended this school and is originally from this somewhat nearby town, which is like watching people drive through your town to avoid traffic jams.'
― christmas candy bar (al leong), Tuesday, 20 May 2014 17:55 (ten years ago) link
when Ott blogs, he creates his own reality. And while we’re studying that reality — judiciously, as you will — he’ll blog again, creating other new realities, which we can study too, and that’s how things will sort out.

You read it when someone reblogs or retweets them; you follow “attribution” back-links to understand why every other site on the Internet is shitting out second-stage coverage of Something Pitchfork Did.
The last thing I read on Pitchfork was their update of the Flaming Lips saga...which was shat-out second-stage coverage of Something Rolling Stone Did.

whenever i read about this dude and his "ideas" i think his social circle must be incredibly narrow and circumscribed because he writes about stuff in the "rock" world with no perspective or sense of proportion whatsoever. as if he had no idea that there were other taste groups, other realms of human experience.
― I dunno. (amateurist), Tuesday, 25 November 2014 20:00 (nine years ago) link
more narrow than that, the "indie rock" world
it's like his world is coextensive with the walls of a college radio station
